    Hansi is such a cool guy!! When I was 15 or so I randomly meet him in a coffeeshop in Barcelona the morning before a show and he gave me and my friends free tickets!!!

      Definitely he's a nice guy and the thing is he sounds like your average metal fan. It doesn't feel like you're actually talking to the singer of Blind Guardian lol.

      I mean, it would be double cool if they met Varg Vikernes as well.

    • @procrastinatorink

      I mean, he did do this for a while drunkinagraveyard.com/2016/01/24/sexual-sunday-with-varg-vikernes-reefer-madness/
      which shows his sense of humor, so you never know. Him and Karpizzle have similar joke styles.

    • @procrastinatorink

      @nextlevelgamer6936 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Actually I would only need to take the bus :D But Hansi sure is awesome. And he seems like such a humble person. Now that I think about it, everyone in Blind Guardian seems really down-to-earth compared to some other metal musicians out there.

      Blind Guardian and Demons and Wizards!

      What is yours, NLG?

      @nextlevelgamer6936 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Demons and Wizards: Fiddler on the Green as well (the only song from them that I know).
      Blind Guardian: tie between Bards Song, Born in a Mourning Hall (that second guitar solo!) and Another Stranger Me.
      I also like the cover of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida very much.

    @theTYTAN3 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I would say what I've noticed from you guys is that you tend to pronounce certain words especially words that start with "y" like "your" with a bit more of an "e" sound blended in. I also notice you say "ay" every once in a while.
    It's barely noticeable, other than that the "Canadian accent" sounds pretty much just like the "northwest US accent"

    • @IrateWizrd

    *lol* asking a German if Canadians do have an accent. I really don't know, but I'm sure Germans do have the worsest accent ever. Are there any Germans who do live in Germany and don't sound just wrong speaking english?
    Anyway, I love Blind Guardian and Hansi is so sweet.

      Well if you sound like Veela or Misty Chronexia then you have a pretty clear accent. I think that accent goes over on the west side of Canada like Quebec, British Colombia?, and you probably know a little bit more on that subject than I do.
